What do you do when you can't sleep?

you take pictures!

admittedly there are several more like them... i tried to remember how to do rollover images... alas!

the problem is ... i take medication to help me sleep--Boy! does it ever fog my brain! Which is wonderful at night when you need a little fog to slow your little mind down, and fade the latent worry.
By prescription only, sorry.
BUT!!! every once in a while, my poor little mind and body refuse to succomb to the excellence of chemical-induced rest--which is basically the generic version of genuine rest.
In times and sans chemicals past, i've found that writing helps. Enter Great Irony: my brain is too foggy to cohere anything (see what i mean?!?). and i still can't sleep, either.
Nice. (matti, i want you to visualize that in ASL)
once, i basically laid in my bed and blinked for about 8 hours. Sounds really aggravating? Naw, my brain was WAY too fog-bound to figure that out.

a good idea would be to write a lot during the day--in addition to the trampoling and such that i do to prove to myself that i can. However, i am in a very stupifying and sweetly doleful depression, and all i want to do is watch Bones. If we owned "scrubs" i think i'd watch it, too.
uber frustrating!
